We open outside the MGM Grand right here in Las Vegas, Nevada in a grand wide shot of the arena in all it’s glory. Projected on the very front of the building is the words WFWF SHOWTIME, LIVE TONIGHT!"Las Vegas, sin city itself. A moniker that doesn’t just suit the stars of the WFWF, it personifies us. Tonight, right here in Las Vegas, Nevada, we put everything we have on the line, all or nothing, the greatest gamble possible. Pride…"We erupt onto a series of intercut shots of Chase Landon and Cam Nitta back in their original runs in the WFWF, ending with Landon holding the WFWF World Tag Team Championship and Nitta the WFWF National Championship."Titles."A short montage of Ante Whitner’s reign as the longest WFWF National Champion of all time, smashing straight into the Wreckers assault of Whitner at Borderlines and ending with Lucas Crowe holding the very same National Championship up high."Our very bodies."A very simple extended clip of Trace Demon and Penny Shannon beating the holy hell out of each other at Curtain Call, focusing in on Trace trying to strangle Penny, Penny returning the favour by sending both of them crashing through the security barricade and ending with both of them down and out."And most importantly, the right to be called the best."That very recognisable shot from the end of Dead Bodies are Buried Under the Sakura, where Josh Dean, fresh off of becoming number one contender, stared down Drakz, holding both the WFWF World Tag Team Championships and the WFWF World Heavyweight Championship. It cuts to the pair ‘working together’ to retain the Tag Team Championships, before quickly cutting to Curtain Call, where Drakz cut Josh Dean with a vicious steel chair shot."Are you ready to take a risk?"We cut back to the MGM Grand, only this time a crane shot looking at the roof of the building. A man sits on the very edge, dangling his feet off of the roof. We quickly get in close to see that the man is none other than the owner of the WFWF, Trace Demon. He smirks."Showtime!"The screen goes black and suddenly we’re in the arena as a huge pyrotechnics display goes off. We pan around the arena at the 16,000 people who have come out to watch the WFWF here tonight. They cheer loudly as we pan around them, eventually settling on our announce team for the night.Alecia Matthews: Hello ladies and gentlemen, we are here live in front of over 16,000 people in the MGM Grand here in Las Vegas, Nevada for WFWF Showtime! I’m Alecia Matthews and I’m sat with my broadcast colleague Cameron Stone. Cameron Stone: That’s WFWF International Champion Cameron Stone thank you very much. Alecia Matthews: You’re never going to let that go are you. Cameron Stone: Not likely. Alecia Matthews: Well we are here tonight for a huge night of action. We’ve got the return of Cam Nitta, an all-out war between Trace Demon and Penny Shannon and two title matches! Cameron Stone: Including that huge World Heavyweight Championship match between Drakz and Josh Dean. Tonight is going to be good! Alecia Matthews: Well right now it's time to get into our opening match! “Mr Hurricane” by Beast hits the arena PA. Dani Park leads Chase Landon to the ring. Chase walks slowly but Dani encourages Chase and Chase picks up his stride and begins to confidently make his way to the ring.Christa Adina: Ladies & Gentlemen this is your first match of the evening! The following contest is set for one fall. Introducing first, being accompanied to the ring by Dani Park, from Everett Washington, weighing 213lbs, Chaaaaase Landoooooon! Cameron Stone: Well here go folks! First competitor of the night, Chase Landon. What a chance this is for him to step out on his own two as well. We’ve known Chase as a tag team wrestler for the better part of his career. Alecia Matthews: That’s right. A win here in singles action is exactly what he needs to start that climb towards gold in the WFWF. Dani gets on the apron and holds the ropes open for Chase. Chase enters the ring followed by Dani. Chase stands in the middle of the ring while Dani pulls off his leather jacket and gives him a kiss on the cheek.“If you're sick, if you're sick, if you're sick, if you're sick of it If you're sick, if you're sick, if you're SICK OF IT!”Cam Nitta emerges from the curtains, cloaked in a black hood and black jacket.Cameron Stone: And this is something no one saw coming! Alecia Matthews: How apt that both competitors have so much to prove here tonight! Cam extends his hands towards the fans as he walks down the entrance way, but he doesn't seem to care much for them high-fiving.Christa Adina: And his opponent, from Chicago, Illinois, weighing 185lbs, please welcome back Cam Nittaaaaaa! When Cam gets to the ring, he sheds his coat as the chorus his, which sets off the pyro on the stage. The referee calls both men to the centre of the ring and goes over the rules. Both men nod and as Dani exits the ring the bell is called to start the first match in the MGM Grand.*Ding Ding*Both men slap hands and then begin to circle. Chase calls for a test of strength.Alecia Matthews: It’s interesting seeing Chase as the bigger guy in the ring. At 213lbs he’s hardly small, but in the world of wrestling he tends to wind up on the lighter side of the scales when compared to his opponents. The two men lock fingers and begin tussling for position.Cameron Stone: I wonder how that’s going to effect his game plan, if at all? Cam on the other hand is used to being the smaller, lighter guy so you have to believe he’s going to stick to what he knows. Chase begins to gain the advantage, pushing Nitta right over backwards until the top of his head is flat against the mat. Nitta maintains a bridge and Landon mounts him, trying to force both shoulders to the ground. He does!… 1 …But Nitta pops back up into a bridge. Landon almost does a handstand and then drives his knees into the sternum of Cam, flattening him out again.… 1 …
…Nitta rolls a shoulder but still has his hands joined with Landon. Landon rises back to his feet and stands on the tips of Cam’s. He then pulls back, bringing Cam up to his feet and into his arms. Landon throws Nitta overhead with a belly to belly, but Nitta flips through and lands on his feet!Alecia Matthews: Wow! The athleticism of Nitta has to be seen to be believed. I’d almost forgotten how explosive he can be! Nitta wags a finger to the crowd and then jumps backwards with a flip. He grabs a hold of Landon’s head with his feet and then twists to toss Landon with a huricanrana, but Landon is able to cartwheel out of harms way. He immediately jumps and hits a low drop kick to the exposed ribs of Nitta who was scrambling to his feet. Nitta tumbles into the ropes and Landon wastes no time in following up with a second front dropkick that bundles Cam Nitta out between the bottom and second rope, down to the mat.Alecia Matthews: Well we see some action taken to the floor for the first time tonight. Something tells me it won’t be the last though. Landon holds the ropes nearest to the downed Nitta.Cameron Stone: What’s the former Tag Team Champion planning here? As Nitta rises to his feet, groggy from his fall, Landon spring boards the ropes and comes crashing down with a cross body that flattens Nitta. Dani can be heard cheering Landon on. Landon is back to his feet and is getting fired up. He pulls Nitta with him and then runs him back first into the corner of the guard wall. Nitta’s back arches on contact but he doesn’t have time to recover as Landon follows with a step up knee, pushing himself up off of a crew member’s opened steel chair. Landon is smiling as he looks around at Dani before then using his high centre of gravity to fall back and monkey toss Cam onto the ground.Cameron Stone: Take it from a man that knows, any fall on those thin mats outside the ring is not pleasant. The very little protection they provide does nothing when you have someone throwing you on to them like that. Landon picks Nitta up and then turns in such a way that when he throws them both back with a Russian leg sweep Cam’s head and neck bounce off of the bottom of the guard wall!Cameron Stone: Jesus. Alecia Matthews: This is a very aggressive Chase Landon we’re getting tonight! Did you hear the thud of Cam’s head just then? Cameron Stone: He needs to get him back in the ring though. You can’t win matches on the outside. Landon slides in and straight back out of the ring, breaking the referees count. He then picks Nitta up again. He leads him around to the announcer’s side of the ring and then puts all of his strength into an Irish whip that sends Cam Nitta to the steel ring steps. Nitta is quick on his toes though and he jumps clean over them!Cameron Stone: Great spacial awareness from Nitta there! Alecia Matthews: You can see he’s nursing the back of his head and neck though. Landon has landed some meaningful shots in the early going. Landon, not wanting to allow time for Nitta to recover, charges the steps and jumps off of them himself but Nitta steps aside leaving Landon to connect with the top of the guard wall, ribs first. Nitta follows up with a big spinning roundhouse to the back of Landon’s head that stuns him and flops him, pretty lifeless, over the wall.Alecia Matthews: Great sequence from Nitta there as he hangs Landon out to dry. Nitta climbs to the apron and backs right up away from the dazed Landon. He begins slapping the top turnbuckle pad and the entire arena joins in clapping. Nitta runs and leaps crashing into Landon with a huge ariel double knee!Cameron Stone: He may be light, but with that much momentum behind him Cam Nitta has just put a serious amount of punishment to Chase Landon! Alecia Matthews: The crowd are lapping this one up Cam! Cam rolls Landon back into the ring before hitting a slingshot senton and covering.… 1 …
… 2 …
Kick out!Landon kicks out with authority! Cam is back to his feet though, wanting to keep the pressure on. He lifts Chase up, whips him across the ring and catches him with a spinebuster. Another cover:… 1 …
… 2 …
Kick out!Alecia Matthews: Landon refusing to go down without a fight. Cameron Stone: It’s worth mentioning that even though both of these men are returning from extended hiatuses, Landon has had the chance to get in the ring a couple of times already where as this is literally Nitta’s first match in the WFWF in years. Nitta has Landon up again and he hooks his arms from behind.Cameron Stone: Blinding Lights Suplex! Nitta holds his version of the dragon suplex for yet another pin fall attempt.… 1 …
… 2 …
…Kick out!Nitta struggles to believe that Landon keeps kicking out and he appeals to the referees better judgement, asking if that was really only a 2. While he does this though Landon is given precious seconds to recover. By the time Nitta returns his focus to his opponent Landon has regained enough strength to throw him off and the two begin exchange blows.Alecia Matthews: These two just slugging it out in the centre of that ring! Cameron Stone: Whoever comes out of this on top stands a good chance of picking up a much needed win here. Landon begins to force back the smaller man in Nitta but Nitta hits the ropes and comes back again. Landon catches him with a hip toss. Nitta goes down but pops right back up. Another hip toss! Nitta up again. A third hip toss with an exclamation mark in the form of a jumping, standing elbow drop to the solar-plexus! Landon with a lateral press:… 1 …
… 2 …
… Kick out!Dani tells Landon to finish things and he lifts Nitta to his feet and lifts him with a suplex.Cameron Stone: Falcon Arrow coming up! Nitta slips down the back though and basement dropkicks Landon’s leg out from under him. Landon takes a knee and Nitta hits the ropes.Cameron Stone: シャイニング ウィザード! Alecia Matthews: What? Cameron Stone: Sorry. SHINING WIZAAAAAARD! Nitta scurries to his feet and hits the ropes again, springboarding from the second to hit the Claymore! (Springboard Corkscrew Backflip).… 1 … … 2 … … 3! Christa Adina: Here is your winner Cam Nittaaaaa! Alecia Matthews: Nitta does it! He picks up a win in his first match back! Cameron Stone: What a performance from Landon though. Something tells me this isn’t the last time we’ll see these two square off. That was too close to call it finished business. The screen goes dark and we're left with just a voice"I've seen some sh*t, man.
More than you could ever imagine.
I've been bloodied.
I've been stabbed.
I've been destroyed.
For what cost?
To come here?
I have an addiction.
You won't hurt me anymore.
Peace is just a state of mind.
That I will never achieve.
Soon you will see.
See the real me.
Save our souls."

We return from the ads to the shouts and cheers of the MGM Grand.Cameron Stone: Welcome back folks and we're just gonna get right into it. Next match. Gold on the line. It's going to be a real measuring stick for where the main event scene is heading in the future. Alecia Matthews: Two dogs, one yard, both with the feeling that the other should step down. The National Champion Lucas Crowe defends against the longest reigning National Champion of all time Ante Whitner! DING DINGChrista Adina: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the WFWF National Championship! Suddenly, Damage Case by Motorhead began blaring over the PA system.Alecia Matthews: Well this song isn’t one used by either challenger nor champion in this match. Cameron Stone:No but I’m fairly familiar with an individual that used to use this song. Alecia Matthews:… No, I can’t handle this guy out here another week. Out from behind the curtains walks “Platinum” Justin Tyme. Justin marches his way down the ramp over to the commentator’s table. He makes it a point to sit right beside Cameron Stone.Cameron Stone: Justin Tyme, I shouldn’t have to ask but I feel compelled to anyways. What brings you down here tonight? Justin Tyme: Cameron, my old buddy old pal… You made me a very rich man, richer than I already was and I just wanted to come out here and personally, face to face, say thank you sir. It just so happens that the timing of this coincided directly with me being out here to witness my protégé Lucas Crowe successfully retain his WFWF National Championship up close from the best seat in the house. Gangster's Paradise by Like A Storm hits the PA system. Bluish-colored smoke plumes out from the stage to reveal a shadow.Christa Adina: Introducing first, from Yonkers, New York weighing in at two hundred fifteen pounds, “The God Slayer” Anteeeeeeeeee WHITNER! The shadow starts to slowly fade into oblivion with a mysterious-looking Ante Whitner appear on the stage. The smoke returns, this time, a red color, as Ante pulls up his hooded, gray, sweatshirt. He places his two index fingers on his head and yells out. The crowd roars with boos as Ante just smirks and walks down the ramp.Alecia Matthews: Ante is here with his game face on. Cam, what does this match mean to an Ante Whitner who has already reached this particular mountain top and went on to be the longest reigning WFWF National Champion. Justin Tyme: If you don’t mind Cameron, my old buddy, I would like to answer this one. Ante’s “game face” as you put it is merely a façade. He is trying to convince you all that to hold the National Championship again is a goal he wants to attain but frankly I’m not buying it. As soon as he looked right past Lucas Crowe and set his sights on the International Championship, a championship that might I add is held by my good friend sitting right here, he made it perfectly clear that re-climbing this particular mountain is beneath him and I think he’s in a world of hurt tonight as he gets sent tumbling down the very mountain he once conquered. Then I guess you can have him Cameron because my WFWF National Champion will have proven that the title you hold is third rate nowadays anyway. Cameron Stone: Heh, I guess I shouldn’t really be surprised but it sounds like you have zero respect for the man Lucas Crowe is about to step into the ring with. Justin Tyme: You have always done that haven’t you? You have mistaken my confidence for a lack of respect. To the contrary, I think the world of Ante. He was the longest reigning WFWF National Champion after all. Alecia Matthews: Was? He slides into the ring, almost licking the canvas and slowly gets up. He looks in amazement at the capacity-crowd and just smirks. He pulls off his sweatshirt, throws it in the crowd, and yells out: "Are you with me or not?!" The music stops playing and there’s silence for a few moments. The opening riff of The Vengeful One by Disturbed blares through the arena as Lucas Crowe makes his way from behind the curtain.Christa Adina: And his opponent, from Detroit, Michigan weighing in at three hundred ten pounds, he is the current reigning and defending WFWF National Champion, “The Motor City Mercenary” Luuuuuuuuuuucas CROWE! There are small smatterings of boos and a couple cheers that come from the crowd as the big man saunters his way down the ramp.Justin Tyme: Look at that man, that is the look of a real game face. Alecia Matthews: Lucas Crowe just locked eyes with you Justin and he looked almost displeased to see you sitting here ringside. Justin Tyme: Well see here’s the thing. Lucas and I had a discussion about how he wants to win this match on his own without my help and I respect his wishes. Unfortunately my reputation precedes me so he probably thinks I’m up to something. Excuse me for a moment. Justin puts his headset down on the announce table and approaches Crowe. Crowe and Tyme have a brief verbal exchange in which Tyme explains to Crowe that he gives him his word that he will not interfere in this match. Tyme then returns to the commentator’s table as Crowe climbs up and over the top rope. He paces inside the ring a bit before facing the camera side and raises his fist.Cameron Stone: What sort of words of encouragement did you provide to your protégé there Tyme? Justin Tyme: I just reminded him that he’s an almost seven foot tall giant of a man who doesn’t need my help. I gave him my word that I would never dream of interfering with his affairs if that is what he desires. And you know me Cam, I never go back on my word. The two men stare each other down and the size difference becomes quite evident. Crowe, about nine inches taller and about a hundred pounds heavier, seemingly dwarfs the smaller Whitner. As soon as the bell rings though, Whitner charges at Crowe with a flurry of strikes. Punches and kicks flying designed to bewilder the giant. Whitner appears to gain a solid upper hand until a hard punch to the midsection from Crowe seems to knock all the air out of Ante bringing his momentum to a screeching halt. Whitner dropped to his knees where the giant Crowe stomps on the back of Ante, flattening him out on his stomach. Crowe bends down and looks to be thinking of locking in the Motor City Blackout already but Whitner elbows Crowe in the side of the head and rolled to his back. Whitner then kicks the doubled over Crowe in the jaw to back the big man off into the corner allowing Whitner an opportunity to get to his feet.Alecia Matthews: As many people predicted, this match wasn’t going to start off as a scientifically impressive mat wrestling clinic. Crowe is a giant of a man capable of some crushing strikes and Whitner, while a technically proficient competitor, came into this match acknowledging that to start the match off with chain wrestling would lead to an early end for sure. Cameron Stone: Not only that but Whitner has had to deal with blindside attacks from Crowe and Tyme for the last couple weeks so that may have contributed to some frustration. And as Tyme and I can attest, when you come into a match with any sort of frustration or anger towards your opponent, the thought of collar and elbow tie ups and chinlocks is about as far outside of your mind as possible. Crowe stumbles backwards to the turnbuckles, holding onto his jaw. Whitner follows him into the corner with a running chop across the chest of Crowe. Whitner backs up a few steps before coming back in with a clothesline to Crowe in the corner. Crowe appears wobbly so Whitner attempts an Irish whip to the other corner but Crowe puts the brakes on. Whitner attempts a second time but Crowe again puts a stop to it. Crowe pulls Whitner towards him and levels him with a short arm clothesline that turns Ante inside out. Crowe drops down for a cover but Whitner kicks out before the ref even gets into position to make a count. Crowe pulls Whitner up to his feet by his ears and positions him in the corner. Crowe stacks up at the opposite corner and comes barrelling in for a charging corner splash. Luckily, Whitner had the sense of self-preservation to front roll his way out of the corner as Crowe crashes into corner turnbuckle chest first. Whitner quickens up his step as he turns and levels Crowe with a Yakuza kick. Crowe crumples into a heap on the mat as Whitner wastes no time in trying for a cover. The ref gets down and barely counts one before Crowe kicks out.Alecia Matthews: Both of these competitors are throwing around some hurting bombs early. If this keeps up neither man will have to worry about the WFWF National championship, they’ll be lucky if they still have careers. Justin Tyme: Ante has been in some wars throughout his time here in the WFWF and I knew going into this it would be no different. Lucas hasn’t had to really compete in any real knockdown, drag out brawls where you leave all of your cards on the table. Tonight might be the night for that. Whitner looks unsure of his next move for a brief moment as he struggles to haul Crowe to his feet by his ears much the same way that Crowe did to him just moments before. Once Ante gets Crowe up, Whitner delivers a European Uppercut that staggers Lucas for a moment. Ante then delivers a forearm to the jaw followed by another European Uppercut. Ante attempted another forearm but Crowe grabs the arm and locks in a Kimura. Ante immediately scrambles to the ropes which forces Crowe to break the hold. Ante stares at the much larger Crowe and acknowledges that had ring positioning not been on his side, Crowe could’ve dropped to the mat and potentially ripped his arm off. Ante smirks and shakes out the arm.Cameron Stone: That just proves that the first person to make a mistake in this match could very well come out of this on the losing end. Alecia Matthews: If Ante wasn’t so close to the ropes on that exchange already, who knows how that could have turned out. It’s hard to defend against a three hundred pound man wrenching on your arm. Justin Tyme: I can say with great certainty that I know how that exchange would have played out had ring positioning not been on Ante’s side. Crowe now seemed to have a sudden surge of confidence that he almost out wrestled Whitner as he went in for a collar and elbow tie up. Whitner wasn’t biting though as he jacks Lucas in the chin with a straight left jab. Lucas wobbles backwards a few steps. Whitner then connects with a roundhouse kick to the ribs of Crowe which takes the air out of Lucas. Whitner then catches Crowe with a standing dropkick which knocks the big man off his feet. Whitner wastes no time as he bounces of the ropes and comes back with a knee drop to the face of Crowe. Crowe begins rolling towards the ropes on the commentator’s side of the ring. Whitner helps him out a bit as he hits a running baseball slide which forces the Motor City Mercenary out of the ring to the floor. The crowd begins to swell with excitement as with Crowe on the outside and Whitner on the inside, they might see a little crash and burn.Alecia Matthews: Crowe outside of the ring now. Whitner looks like he’s prepared to pull out all the stops here Justin. Justin Tyme: That’s how you perceive it I suppose. I still look at it as this man putting on a show to pretend that this title is important to him. Whitner bounces off the rope and comes rebounding back full speed as he dives through the ropes and hits Crowe with a top speed suicide dive. It doesn’t take the big man off his feet though, just staggers him momentarily so Whitner slides back in the ring and performs a second suicide dive with a similar result. Whitner slides in the ring once more, intent to knock Crowe on his ass outside of the ring. Whitner dives through the ropes one more time but this time Whitner is caught by Crowe who proceeds to violently and maliciously overhead belly to belly suplex Whitner over the Spanish announce table in a tangled heap of humanity. Crowe rolls back into the ring and instructs the referee to begin his count.

Whitner begins to crawl his way out from underneath the pile of chairs and commentators and wires and slowly begins making his way back to the ring.

Whitner reaches the ring and is attempting to pull himself up. He finally does, making it into the ring before the ref reaches ten. Crowe smirks but it doesn’t last long as Whitner jumps to his feet and connects with a leaping clothesline that brings Crowe crashing to the mat. Whitner kips up and makes his way to one of the opposite corners and climbs to the top rope. Without hesitation, Whitner leaps off and drives a huge elbow into the heart of Crowe and immediately goes for a cover
1…

Crowe kicks out at two and a bit.Alecia Matthews: Ante almost scores a pinfall off that huge elbow drop. These two have been going at it at such a breakneck pace that we almost saw it end right there. Justin Tyme: You are more delusional than I thought if you believed Ante could have ended the match right there. Ante pulled himself to his feet and looked to climb to the top rope again. Lucas was quick to his feet this time and put a stop to whatever Whitner was planning. Crowe delivers an uppercut to Whitner forcing him to straddle the top rope. Crowe then ascended out of his comfort zone, climbing to the middle rope and looking like he was about to attempt a superplex. Before Crowe could lift Whitner though, Ante delivered some body shots which stopped Lucas’ attempt. A few headbutts from Whitner later and Crowe was sent crashing backwards to the mat below. Whitner took this new found opportunity now to come off the top rope with a diving headbutt. Whitner again attempted a cover.

Crowe kicks out but Whitner immediately floats over into a cross armbreaker. Lucas is clasping his hands to prevent Whitner from being able to fully lock it in but a few boots to the side of the head force Lucas to let go of his hands allowing Ante to cinch it in. Crowe however being a nearly seven foot tall man is close to the ropes at almost all places of the ring unless it’s in the centre which this was not. Lucas was able to scramble his way to put a boot on the bottom rope. Ante relinquishes the armbar but stands up and immediately uses the leg Crowe used to reach the bottom rope to set up an STF. Crowe attempts to reach out with a free arm for another rope break but Whitner locks in a crossface. Crowe gets sick of this gamesmanship and manhandles Whitner onto Ante’s back and, using the arm that Whitner had locked for the crossface, lifts Ante off the ground and drops him down with a one armed powerbomb. Crowe follows that up immediately with a cover.

Kickout by Whitner!Alecia Matthews: What a sequence! Whitner seemed hell bent on forcing the much bigger Crowe to tap out and what a feather in the cap that would have been. Justin Tyme: Too bad Ante forgot that Crowe is a giant of a man and can reach for a rope break at nearly every part of the ring and when that doesn’t work he can just man handle you anyway he sees fit. Lucas lets out an almost primal yell as he seems prepared to finish this. Lucas picks Ante up by his ears and hooks under both arms, hoisting Whitner up and dropping him with the Crowe’s Nest. Crowe hooks the leg and goes for a cover.
1…
2…
Whitner kicks out! Lucas slaps the mat in frustration after Whitner kicked out of one of his best shots. Crowe gets to his feet and begins stalking Ante, looking ready to lock in the Motor City Blackout. Whitner staggers to his feet but as Crowe attempts to lock the Blackout in, Ante fights out of it with an aggressive elbow that forces Crowe back into the referee who takes a spill. Ante then forces Crowe down and locks in Bloody Yonkers. Crowe struggles for a few moments to reach the ropes but he’s in the middle of the ring. Crowe taps out but Ante refuses to let go of the hold because he knew the referee wasn’t able to see Crowe give up. Ante was content to keep the hold locked in until either Crowe passed out or the referee came back to his senses. Eventually Crowe faded into unconsciousness but as he did, the masked men that have been surrounding Crowe the last couple weeks hit the ring and began to lay the boots. The two men begin to lay a beating on Whitner before eventually hitting the Shatter Machine and fleeing through the crowd.Cameron Stone: There are those masked men again. I thought Crowe gave you instructions not to interfere in this match Tyme. Justin Tyme: I didn’t interfere as you see me sitting right here, I did not lay a single finger on Ante Whitner. The referee regained his composure as Crowe crawled his way to Whitner and draped an arm across his chest. The referee began his count

KICKOUT by Whitner. Crowe let out a scream, rolled Whitner over and locked in the Motor City Blackout. Ante struggled, kicking his feet to try to reach any ropes that he could but the more he struggled the quicker his energy drained. Eventually the signs of life in Whitner faded away. The referee checked on Ante who was unresponsive so the ref called for the bell.
DING DING DINGChrista Adina: Here is you winner and STILL WFWF National Champion, LUUUUUUCAS CROWE! Alecia Matthews: God dammit Tyme, you told all of us that Crowe wanted to win this match on his own and here Ante had the match won until those masked goons stuck their nose in things. Justin Tyme: If Ante had the match won then why isn’t his arm being raised? Sorry, I don’t have time for you to answer that. I have to go make sure the champ is alright. Justin Tyme throws his headset down and slides under the bottom rope with the National Championship in hand. He tosses it to Crowe and raises his hands in the air. Crowe looks at Tyme puzzled as though he’s not sure how he got out of Whitner’s Bloody Yonkers. Tyme pats Crowe on the back as the two exit the ring and head up the ramp together.Christa Adina: The follow grudge match is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, from Los Santos, weighing in at 134 pounds, she is the Velocity Grrrl, Pennnny Shannnnnon! Arena lights fall dim as sparkles of purple, pink, and baby blue settle around the entrance way. Smoke fills the isle as the shrill of L7's "Fast and Frightening" damn near rips the speakers in two!Penny pushes herself through the entrance curtain, hooded up in her signature hoodie. She takes a moment to stand by the edge of the stage, pulling down her hood to reveal her pigtails as she kicks her feet and makes a mad rush down the isle.
Slipping into the ring beneath the ropes, Penny charges up the up the turnbuckle and raises her left arm into the air, holding up a single fist as she turns to the camera.Christa Adina: Her opponent, from Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. Weighing tonight at 230 pounds, The King of Demons, Trace Deeeeeemon! As the opening chords of “Seizure of Power” hits the speakers the lights across the arena shut off one by one. They are replaced by six crimson spotlights, each one turning on a different part of the arena in sequence. One by one each of the spotlights move to the tip of the stage, combining and showing the first glimpse of Trace Demon, down on one knee with his back to the crowd and a hoodie over his head. As the song builds to a fever pitch he suddenly rises, spins around and in one simultaneous motion pulls his hood down and throws his other hand up like a gun, mouthing “Boom” as pyrotechnics go off all around him. As the pyrotechnics come to a stop the lights in the arena turn on, showing a full look at Trace Demon.
Trace stands on the ramp and takes a look around at the crowd, completely unfazed by the reaction he is getting. He seems to be in his own little world as he makes his way down the ramp, completely ignoring the fans on either side of him as they attempt to touch the King of Demons, instead focused solely on the ring and the whatever goal he has in mind for tonight. As he reaches the bottom of the ramp he removes his hoody and throws it to the ground before settling himself just outside the ring. In a single flawless motion he leaps up onto the apron and then enters the ring between the top and middle rope. He ascends the nearest turnbuckle, pointing to the fans and smirking as they return the abuse, and then leaps back down, settling in the centre of the ring.
Penny walks to the center of the ring and it isn't long before she begins an intense stare-down with Trace Demon. The referee rushes between the both of them with his arms open, keeping them both seperated until the sound of the bell.Cameron Stone: And we are live at the sold out MGM Grand and we are about to witness a match that is two years in the making! Alecia Matthews: What’s crazy is that one of them would have struck the first shot by now. Cameron Stone: Trace and Penny know what their in-for and it looks to me like both of them are giving each other some breathing room. The referee calls for the bell and the match it on! Penny and Trace rush into each other, trading clubing blows as eventually, both wrestlers come into a clench. Trace uses his size to overpower Penny, forcing her to the corner now but Penny pushes him off and knocks him in the side of the head with a stiff forearm. Trace stumbles back but launches back with a hard blow across the nose that sends Penny on her knees. A sick ‘owww’ resounds across the audience as the camera now zooms into Penny’s face; she’s covering her nose with her palm, but it’s clear to see that she’s been busted open. Alecia Matthews: We’re not even two minutes into this match and already we have a bleeder! Trace wastes no time now. He grabs a handful of hair and begins work, laying down one vicious punch after another into Penny’s face. The referee rushes over to intercept, but Trace flips him off and aggressively snap mare’s Penny into the center of the ring. Trace rushes off the ropes and nails Penny in the back with a vicious dropkick. Trace forces Penny into the canvass and makes the cover.1…
2… Penny kicks out. Trace grabs a handful of hair again and attempts to bring Penny back up, but the Velocity Grrrl fires back with a hard boot against the shin. Trace releases the hair and stumbles away.
Penny rushes back with a lariat, but Trace ducks the lariat and rushes for one of his own, but Penny flies off the ropes and nails Trace Demon with a front dropkick right across the gut and follows up with a modified Shoryuken-type upper cut across the law, sending Trace down into the canvass. Penny goes in for the pin, but Trace rolls outside.
Trace keeps close to the apron, clutching his jaw. Penny now charges off the ropes and rushes in with a baseball side, but Trace sidesteps and traps Penny into the apron. Wasting no time, Trace swing a heymaker back into Penny’s face- the close up now revealing that her face has started to swell.Alecia Matthews: My girl can’t even catch a break! Cameron Stone: Trace Demon has been doing a fantastic job of keeping himself above Penny. Trace Demon wipes his face with Penny’s blood and goes for the assault again, clutching her by the neck as he chokes her out. The referee squeezes himself between them to intercept, but Trace pushes him off and continues with the choke, inadvertently giving Penny room to knee him a sickening low-blow.Cameron Stone: And the referee’s back was turned on that one. Alecia Matthews: This just might be the opening Penny needs. Quickly, Penny pushes herself onto the canvass and with Trace staggered away momentarily, the Velocity Grrrl rushes down the apron and knocks Trace with another front dropkick- hurling him right into the security rail.
Penny scrambles back to her feet and rushes over to Trace, assaulting him with a fury of punches. The referee begins the ten count and Penny forces Trace back into the ring, but Trace reverses and sends Penny into the steel steps but Penny manages to jump on to the steel steps- holding out her arms as she tries to balance herself. Trace Demon rushes over and Penny takes into the air as she throws her back into him, but Trace Demon manages to catch her on his shoulder now as he turns around and drives her into the steel post with her legs open.Cameron Stone: … Even I felt that! Holy crap! Trace grabs Penny by the neck and drives her into the arena floor with a modified neck-breaker of sorts- damn near twisting her head into canvas. A sick ‘oww’ resounds across the arena as the instant replay comes on and highlights both spots.Alecia Matthews: Do we really need to see this again? Back in the ring now, Trace has Penny’s legs hooked for the cover.1…
2… Penny kicks out!
Trace again with another handful of hair, bringing Penny back to her feet, but the Velocity Grrrl pushes him off and clips him in the neck with a stiff lariat, taking him down into the canvass with her as her arm drapes his shoulder. The referee slides in with the three count. 1… Penny rolls away from Trace, springs from the ropes and knocks him right in the chest with a dropkick, sending him sailing to the other side of the ring where Penny greets him with another hard dropkick, this one knocking him right in the face- just busting him open on impact.
Penny pulls him to the center of the ring for the cover.1…
2…Penny breaks the three count again and mounts Trace, holding him by the forearm now as she fires one vicious punch to the face after another. The referee rushes in and pries Penny off, giving Trace the room to recover in the corner of the ring. Penny marches through the referee and rushes into the corner, but thinking quickly, Trace rolls out of the ring in the last second and Penny crashes head-first into the post.
The Velocity Grrrl stumbles in a daze as Trace tries to push himself up the turnbuckle, but the effects from Penny’s punches seem to have started to take it’s toll, giving Penny enough time now to charge up the turnbuckle, but Traces pushes her off with a hard boot across the chest. Penny sinks down to her knees, gripping her chest tight as Trace leaps off the top-rope with a diving crossbody and Penny manages to roll through the impact, getting Trace into another pin attempt. 1...
2… Trace kicks out and both wrestlers rush back on their feet and charge into a tie-up. Trace gains the standing, but Penny tries to push Trace off, but his size gets the better of her. Trace pushes Penny into the ropes, still holding on to the tie-up now as he wriggles his arms into a Muay-Thai style clench. Grabbing a handful of Penny’s hair again, Trace draws her away from the ropes and nails Penny with a hard knee across the face. Penny stumbles over and Trace goes for the Demon Elbow Rush, knocking her into the canvas with a fury of elbows across the face. Trace goes for the pin, but Penny manages to roll away to the outside.
Trace paces a couple steps back and eyes Penny, rushing forward now with the suicide dive, but Penny clips him off mid-air with a well timed superkick! Another sick ‘owww’ from the thousands in attendance. Cameron Stone: Jesus H. Christ- I think she just killed Trace Demon! Alecia Matthews: Can we get that on replay? A ‘Holy crap!’ chant has erupted across the arena as both wrestlers lay flat on the arena floor. The instant replay comes up now, showing a slow-motion of Penny’s superkick from different angels; Trace Demon in mid-air, right on the verge of crashing into Penny as the Velocity Grrrl pushes herself forward with the superkick.
There seemed to be a bit of struggle, but Penny has managed to get Trace back into the ring. Penny hooks the leg! 1…
2… Trace gets his boot on the bottom rope. Alecia Matthews: Just what the hell is it going to take to put Trace Demon away? Cameron Stone: That’s a very good question. But I think the- Alecia Matthews: No, I mean it. What’s it gonna take to put Trace Demon away? I don’t want Penny to lose! “PENNYTRATOR TIME, A**HOLE!”, Penny shouts out as she drives a hard stomp across Trace’s chest, much to the delight to the crowd. Alecia Matthews: Well, that answered it! Penny secures Trace between the first and second rope and makes the climb up the opposite turnbuckle. Penny takes a deep breath as the thousands in attendance rise to their feet now as Penny takes the plunge-Penny secures Trace between the first and second rope and makes the climb up the opposite turnbuckle. Penny takes a deep breath as the thousands in attendance rise to their feet now as Penny takes the plunge, but in the last minute Trace manages to wiggle himself to the safety of the top rope, leading Penny to crash into the canvass.
The Velocity Grrrl tries to push herself up but is met with the red mist across the eyes, blinding her as Trace follows up with a hard elbow drop from the top rope.
Viciously, Trace drags Penny to the center of the ring, secures the double underhook and breaks her into the canvass with the Demonstration of Hell!
Big ovation from the thousands in attendance.
The referee makes the count!1…

3! Christa Adina: And the winner of the match, Trace Demon! “Seizure of Power” resounds across the arena as the referee rushes in and raises Trace’s arms in victory. Trace pushes the wrestler off and stumbles to his feet, looking down at Penny now.Alecia Matthews: … Crap! Cameron Stone: Just from the get-go, we knew this match was going to be violent. Both Trace and Penny gave each other the beating of a lifetime and they both managed to survive but in the end, it was Trace Demon who’s walking out of Show Time with the victory. Trace rolls out of the ring and makes his way to the back, clutching the back of his head as he tries to shake off the effects from the match.

Post by Drakz on Jan 11, 2016 11:28:22 GMT -5
Alecia Matthews: We've had an amazing night here in Sin City, and it's time for our Show Time main event. Drakz vs. Josh Dean. The rematch that snuck up on us is finally here. And this time, it's for the richest prize in our sport! Cameron Stone: Right you are Alecia, and it's fitting that we're here in the fight capital of the world for this highly anticipated title match. To think this all started with a little wager made in Japan. Alecia Matthews: What Cam is alluding to is our last Pay Per View, Dead Bodies are Buried Under the Sakura, where Josh Dean earned this opportunity to etch his name in the immortal list of competitors who have held the World Heavyweight Title. A list that includes the likes of Raider, Alex Sean, EBR, Michael Kyzer, Phillip Schneider, Trace Demon, and the current champion Drakz. Adding his name to that list will cement him as one of the best of all time. But it won't be easy, as Drakz has kept a stranglehold on the title for nearly sixteen months, shattering the old mark of 370 days set by a common foe to both men, Phillip Schneider. Cameron Stone: So much more than the title is on the line tonight, but the distinction of who has had the best 2015. Drakz has been unstoppable since returning from his back injury at SuperBrawl in April 2014, taking the title that August and never letting up. But if anyone can claim to have just as good of a year, it's the challenger. After a largely forgettable 2014 in which he returned from his own neck injury Josh Dean has been arguably the hottest star in WFWF, putting together an incredible 2015. No one can argue he deserves to be here tonight in this, his final hurdle toward immortality. Alecia Matthews: Vegas odds have installed the champion as a solid 4:1 favorite tonight over his tag team partner with Dean being a live underdog due to his impressive body of work this past year. Drakz's title reign is in serious jeopardy tonight. Let's get started! The MGM Grand Garden Arena PA system fills with a hard stomp clap rhythm.
Yeah, You know, technically, I'm not even really supposed to be here right now, So f*ck it, might as well make the most of it.
(Amen!) Yeah, haha (Amen!) Feels good, (Amen!) Whooo, (Amen!) Guess I'm lucky, (Amen!)
Fading into the locker room area, we see a team of site officials waiting outside the door. The door swings open and the crowd goes wild as The Architect emerges. An oversized black hood covers his face and the gleam of the WFWF Tag Team Title glistens from around his waist.
Some of us don't get a second chance. (Amen!) But I ain't blowing this one. (Amen!) Naw man, haha (Amen!) crap I feel like I can do anything now.
Josh bounces side to side before stopping in the middle of the hall. Dropping his head, he says a quick prayer, going across his chest in a cross fashion before shooting his head up and screaming what has become his famous battle cry.Josh Dean: LET'S GET IT! Who can catch lightning in a bottle? Set fire to water? Comin' out the nozzle on the fire hose, flier than swatters?
Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man.
With a punch toward the camera, he continues his side to side bounce down the hallway toward the arena entrance.
Smash an hourglass, grab the sand, take his hands and cup 'em, Spit a rhyme to freeze the clock, take the hands of time and cuff 'em.
Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man.
His eyes are focused, resembling steel as he closes in on the entrance. The crowd reaches a crescendo as he stands at the edge of the stairs among them.Cameron Stone: And here he comes! There's a storm comin' that the weather man couldn't predict, I start the bug prick, you better flee cause I get ticked It's a rap, I was down, when I was down I was kicked. I got up I'm back to punch ya to the ground, ya trick, It's a trap, my last CD that crap's in my trash, I be god damned if another rapper gets in my ass, I hit the gas and I spit every rap as if it's my last. You can die in the blink of an eye, so bat ya eyelashes,
Josh makes his descent down the steps with his arms spread wide. Site officials are trying to stay in front of him, but are failing as he stays a step ahead of them. Slapping hands with the fans, he reaches the arena floor.Alecia Matthews: It has certainly been a whirlwind 12 months for "The Architect". After being basically written off following the loss to Phillip Schneider last August, Josh Dean has been on one of the greatest resurgences in all of sports history as he has beaten a who's who of top talent in the past year. Blaze, Kirkbride, Bishop, Ahriman, Witner, Zmey, Sabbath, Garrett have all fallen to the number one contender. Cameron Stone: Right you are Alecia. Josh has managed to go undefeated in 2015, winning the Tag Team Titles twice in that span. And tonight, he can add Drakz and more importantly the World Heavyweight Title to that list. And keep winking and blowin' kisses 'cause you're flirting with death I'm destroying your livelihood. I ain't just hurtin' your rep', I catch a flow and get goin', No remorse I'm showin', ain't slowin' for no one, Knowin' there is nothin' you can do about it Zeroin' on the target like a marksman, The target is you. I shut ya lane down, Took ya spot, parked in it too, Arsenic flow, lighter fluid, saliva what can ya do? Go get ya crew to hype you up stand behind you like whoooo!
Josh turns around. Off comes the toboggan and it sails into the crowd as one half of the Tag Champions soaks it up.Alecia Matthews: Josh seems to be in great spirits tonight, and amidst the controversy surround SOS he needs to be, as Drakz has knocked off every challenger to the title since he won it in Madison Square Garden. Cameron Stone: Listen, Drakz is great and has been on a truly special run that we will be able to appreciate for years to come. That being said, I know Josh personally and I can say with full certainty that he processes all the skills to not only win tonight, but do so in absolutely spectacular fashion! That boy's hot enough to melt Hell, burn Satan too: Fry his ass, and put his ashes back together with glue, See you can hate 'em, he don't blame you frankly he would too, This game could ill-afford to lose him, how bout you?
In just a few short strides, Josh leaps, gracefully dive rolling over the guard rail onto the mat on the outside. He surveys the terrain, his battleground as he climbs the steps. He steps into the ring and throws his hands up in a diamond shape, before turning it into the double guns and exploding into his trademark pose. Josh releases a primal roar!
Now guess who (hey), Here's a clue (hey), He came to the ball in a wife beater, lost his Nike shoe, It's in ya ass (hey), He's in ya ass, he's all up in your psyche too, Now what's his name?
Josh takes off his hoodie and tosses it into the crowd before making his ascent to the top rope. Unwrapping the Tag Team Title from his waist, he slowly raises it above his head.Alecia Matthews: The MGM Grand loves them some of The Franchise. Can he add another belt to his trophy case and become just the fourteenth Triple Crown winner in WFWF history? HE IS THE CHALLENGER, JOSH DEAN! Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, (hey, hey)
Josh climbs down from the turnbuckle and points at Cam, who responds with a point of his own.Cameron Stone: Alecia, you may have to excuse me if I'm not my normal neutral self. This is a big moment for a close friend. Alecia Matthews: No worries Cam, I've got you covered. If I had a time machine I'd be Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Music is my time machine, so call me Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man, Cinderella man
A screaming distortion tears through the arena, building in ferocity to an ear piercing crescendo. Every white light in the arena flashes in strobe for a full 10 seconds, disorienting the audience, until finally the sludgy guitar riff of "MK7" kicks in amidst a myriad of howling vocals. As the song jumps into gear the lights stop flickering and a number of bright spot-lamps all point to the exact same location at the top of the ramp, lighting up the man the people paid to see, Drakz.
The series of screens that surround the stage glow white as well, almost silhouetting Drakz as he bounces on his toes. His WFWF Tag Team and World Heavyweight Championships are held in each hand and he raises them above his head before replicating his usual signature taunt, throwing his arms down. In perfect unison a shower of silver pyro explodes either side of him and the stage screens turn to past footage of the man in action. The difference in light reveals him fully to the cheering crowd and they see he's wearing a Nikki Dean shirt!Alecia Matthews: Wow! Just wow! The gall of this man knows no bounds! Cameron Stone: I don't like it, but I have to admit it's an inspired act to rile Josh up. Look at him, Josh is not happy! Damn right Cam, and Drakz makes his way towards the ring, zigzagging the ramp, letting the fans touch both of the plates on his belts but never breaking his gaze from dead ahead, right into the hungry eyes of Josh Dean.Alecia Matthews: Also is it just me or does the champ look in particularly good shape tonight? Cameron Stone: You're not wrong Alecia. Drakz has clearly been putting the work in leading up to this match. One thing's for sure, he hasn't taken Josh's challenge lightly. Drakz slowly climbs the steel ring steps and then walks the length of the apron before wiping his feet and then mounting the second rope, holding his arms wide with the dual championship belts hanging from them.Alecia Matthews: We stated from the outset, that at 502 days as champion, Drakz is building on already legendary legacy for himself. But tonight could be his toughest test in the leader of SOS. HE IS THE CHAMPION, A MAN OF MANY NAMES, DRAKZ! His pose prompts a lightning storm of camera flashes and he smiles down at Dean. Drakz passes both of his title belts to the official before pulling off his Nikki Dean shirt, balling it up and tossing it in her husband's face! The ref quickly steps in the middle, keeping Josh from charging. The Architect puts both hands up, conceding as he backs to the corner.Alecia Matthews: We almost had some fireworks early. Both men are now in the ring, so let's send it up to Christa Adina for the introductions! DING DING DING!Christa Adina: Ladies and gentleman, THIS IS THE MAIN EVENT OF THE EVENING! This bout is sanctioned by WFWF Incorporated with matchmaker Lila Sleater, and the Nevada State Athletic Commission, Chairman Francisco Aguilar and Board of Directors Skip Avansino, Bill Brady, Pat Lundvall, and Anthony Marnell III. The ringside physician is Dr. John Patton. And now, LIVE from the sold out MGM Grand Garden Arena in Sin City, Las Vegas, Nevada, the following contest is scheduled for one fall and IS FOR THE WFWF WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP! The capacity crowd rises to their feet with a panoramic view from the rafters before cutting in on Josh, looking calm, perhaps a duck on the water's surface with several months of torment at the hands of the champion coming to a head.Christa Adina: Introducing first to my left the challenger, representing the Saviors of Salvation. From Atlanta, Georgia, he weighed in this morning at 225 pounds. He is the 2007 New Breed Tournament winner, a former WFWF International Champion, a two time and current one half of the WFWF World Tag Team Champions, and the current NUMBER ONE CONTENDER! HE IS "THE ARCHITECT", "THE FRANCHISE" JOSH DEAN! The crowd goes wild as Josh stands stoically across the ring from Drakz, staring a hole through his soul.Christa Adina: And introducing his opponent to my right, from Leeds, England by way of Chicago, Illinois. He weighed in this morning at 226 pounds. He is the 2009 Scars and Stripes Battle Royal winner, a two time WFWF National Champion, a two time WFWF International Champion, a two time and current one half of the WFWF World Tag Team Champions, a two time WFWF Grand Slam Champion, a two time WFWF Hall of Fame recipient, and the two time and CURRENT, LONGEST REIGNING AND DEFENDING, UNDISPUTED WFWF HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!!! THE STREAK DESTROYER DESTROYER DESTROYER, GENGHIS KHAN, JR., MR. PRESIDENT, THE GOOD GUY. HE IS THE "GOD" SLAYER, DRAKZ! The stoic staredown from the challenger is reciprocated by the champion. Neither man backing down as they close in toward the center of the ring. The crowd is blowing the roof off the joint.
DING DING!Alecia Matthews: And here we go! The two combatants circle the ring, bouncing on the balls of their feet while carefully keeping their guards up. Drakz throws out a feeler jab and Josh snaps out a lightning fast outside low kick, which is returned likewise by Drakz. He smiles and the two men reset. The champion looks to close distance, but the challenger circles away and nearly missing with a counter left hook. Josh with a long, stinging jab barely touches Drakz's nose, forcing the Good Guy to lunge forward with an overhand right hook, barely grazing the challenger as he rolls away. Good lateral head movement from Josh as he feints a shot. Drakz ducks low to sprawl and eats a short lead uppercut followed by a right cross and a second stinging outside low kick. Josh looks to double up to the inside and it's checked off the knee and countered by a right cross to the jaw from the champ that stops the challenger from pressing forward.Cameron Stone: A conservative start with both men gauging the distance. Kind of strange considering both men's strengths and the emotion heading into this title match. Alecia Matthews: With as cerebral as Drakz is, Josh can not afford to take unnecessary chances. While he's been put through the emotional wringer in recent months, he has to pick his spots to explode. Cameron Stone: I know that this is a huge match Alecia, but Josh is at his best when he keeps a quick tempo and forces his opponents to react. Alecia Matthews: I think Josh knows that Drakz is very good at making in match adjustments and that's why he's slowing it down to start. On the reset Josh shows a high kick that whiffs, but he's quickly out of range preventing Drakz from blitzing. A shuffle step and Josh blitzes forward with a straight left to the body. Drakz with a single collar swing to spin Josh into the corner and the champ goes to work on the body. A flurry of precision strikes to the ribs forces Josh to cover up, though he shoulder rolls a left hook to circle out and respond with with a massive liver shot, followed by volume strikes to the body and the head that are partially blocked with a couple getting through. Drakz shoves him away and Josh resets, motioning for the champ to "bring it".
Back to the center and they circle, much more methodically but still with a bounce here in the early stages of the match. Drakz looks to initiate a grappling exchange, grabbing ahold of a single leg and forcing Josh back into the ropes. Good balance shown by the Architect as he keeps upright, making Drakz pay with sharp hammerfists to the ear. Drakz looks to turn the corner on the single leg. He's having trouble getting it, and Josh uses a tight wizard overhook to stop the takedown as he sprawls out. Drakz looks to elevate him with a high crotch takedown, but Josh spins with the overhook and he's got Drakz's back with one hook in!Cameron Stone: Not where the champ wants to be! On the mat with a Brazilian Jujitsu Black Belt in a dominant position is asking for a long night. Alecia Matthews: And right now Josh is forcing Drakz to carry his weight on that famously repaired back. If he wants to wear Drakz down, this is a good opportunity to do so. Pressing down on the hips, Josh looks to feed the second hook in. Drakz keeps the chin tucked to prevent Josh from attacking with a choke as he tries to work the hook free. Josh with well placed uppercut to the jaw, distracting Drakz enough to sink the second hook in. Drakz turtles up and Josh uses the hooks to posture, throwing hard elbows to the side of the head as Drakz rolls through, creating a scramble that allows him to end up in top position! Josh immediately ties up the arms and looks to attack off his back, peppering Drakz with big elbows to the temple. There's jawing on both sides as Drakz swims through with an arm and lands a sharp elbow to the face. Josh waves him in as he blocks the followup punch and ties Drakz up again. Short palm strikes to the ear and Josh uses the double wrist control to fish for an arm. He's setting it up, but Drakz wisely keeps his right arm pinned tight to the body. He looks to pull away, but Josh has the knee hooked and drags the champ to the mat. He has a kneebar locked in, but Drakz is able to push away and return to his feet! Josh waves him back down and Drakz backs away.Alecia Matthews: We've seen this before, Cam. Josh being active from the bottom and forcing an opponent to give up top position. Cameron Stone: He's truly dangerous in all ground positions and Drakz has done his homework. Their skin is still very dry this early in the match, making it much easier to catch a submission. He's trying not to get too overzealous and get caught. Josh cautiously returns to his feet and Drakz looks to stalk. He's keeping a high guard as Josh looks to circle back to center, checking an outside low kick off the knee and responding with a stiff jab. Josh is more than willing to trade in the pocket as he returns fire with a hook to the body. Drakz with a blitz that takes both men into the ropes. Josh seizing control with a Thai Plum and lands a big knee to the body before spinning Drakz into the ropes. Drakz pummels under and creates enough seperation and land a big European Uppercut before taking Josh over with a big side headlock. Drakz looking to force the shoulders down to the mat and he gets it,

Kickout by Josh and Drakz hangs onto the side headlock, looking to torque up on the neck. Josh with a waistlock, trying to pop the head out or attempt a switch. Drakz shuts down the switch and Josh rolls him up with a modified cradle,

Drakz kicks out and seizes control with the side headlock. Josh fights the hands and reverses into a deep hammerlock, forcing Drakz face down to the mat. Looking for an escape, Drakz gets his knees under him and climbs back to a standing position. He reverses out into a rear waistlock. He lifts Josh for a back suplex. Up and over, with Josh landing on his feet. He shoves Drakz into the ropes, ducking the clothesline attempt off the rebound and scoring with a huge standing dropkick to the jaw that sends the champ flying to the canvas! Josh looks to follow up but Drakz has rolled out of the ring. He checks his jaw as Josh takes up residence in the corner.Alecia Matthews: Looks like Drakz wants to take a second to sort a couple things out. Cameron Stone: That was a smart move by Josh not to follow Drakz to the floor. This is a marathon and you've got to conserve your energy. Drakz takes a couple more seconds before climbing back into the ring. Josh hops down off the turnbuckle and we're back at it again. They circle and lock up. Neither man is willing to give an inch and they seperate, the stalemate being futile. Off the break, Drakz ducks low and scores with an ankle pick single. Josh accepts the takedown and immediately goes to attack the left arm of Drakz, twisting the arm into a kimura and using it to sweep Drakz right into side control. Drakz is able to wiggle out of the grip and push Josh off. Josh doesn't allow Drakz to scoot to his feet, lighting into the champ's thighs with nasty roundhouse kicks. Drakz threatening with upkicks and Josh thinks better of diving into his guard. You can hear the audible trash talk from both competitors.Drakz: C'mon, don't be scared! I thought this was your world! Josh Dean: You better get comfortable in that position, you're gonna spend a lot of time there! Drakz: F*ck you! Josh Dean: No, f*ck you! Alecia Matthews: And the gamesmanship continues Cam! Good thing we're on pay per view, because this is starting to get explicit. Cameron Stone: You're right about that Alecia. Drakz is trying to goad Josh into making a mistake, and I can tell he's tempted to unload! The ref backs Josh up and that allows Drakz to get to his feet. The ref doesn't get out of the way in time, allowing Drakz to drill Josh with a stiff right hand to the jaw. Questionable tactic, but Drakz has gained control and backs Josh up into the corner with big shots. Irish whip into the buckle and Drakz scores with a running forearm strike to the jaw. Josh goes to a knee and Drakz looks to follow up. A big knee to the ribs doubles Josh over and Drakz hooks him high and dumps him with a T Bone Suplex! Josh arches his back as Drakz has a pin,

Kickout by Josh!
Drakz continues the attack by grabbing the arm and extending it out into a wrist flex before snapping down on the arm wringer. Josh is down to a knee and Drakz continues to manipulate the arm, raising Josh up only to double him back over with a big kick. Drakz uses the point of his elbow to grind Josh down to the mat, with Josh guarding the head from any follow up shots. Josh pushes to a knee and lands a sharp elbow to the ribs. Drakz loosens the grip, allowing Josh to get to a vertical base. Josh with a step under into a hammerlock, and Drakz yanks his arm out and rolls out of the ring! The crowd starts to boo this obvious stall tactic.Alecia Matthews: Drakz saw Josh setting up for the Headcheck and got out of dodge. Smart move by the champion...wait, now Josh is in pursuit! Drakz turns around and Josh barrels into him out of the floor with what can be described as a football tackle! Drakz looking to push away as Josh looks to control him. Drakz pushes away and scampers to a safe distance. Josh is back up and continues his pursuit. Drakz slides into the ring, but Josh has his foot! He drags Drakz under the bottom rope and out to the floor, meeting him with a massive European Uppercut to the jaw. Drakz stumbles back to the ring apron. Shoulder into the gut and Josh drives Drakz back first into the apron! Drakz exhales deeply before falling a knee. Josh takes a step back and charges in, looking for a flying knee. Drakz sidesteps it and Josh turns around, GETTING CAUGHT IN THE TRANSITION WITH A BLUE THUNDER DRIVER INTO THE RING POST! HOLY SH*T!Alecia Matthews: That has to be all! Drakz just spun him head first into the post! Cameron Stone: I don't think I've ever seen a variation like that before! And Josh looks in pretty rough shape right now. Drakz, realizing the significant impact of the blow, immediately rolls Josh into the ring. His dead weight is making it difficult for the champ to move him, but Drakz eventually rolls him in. He slides in and goes for the cover,
1...

Kickout by Josh!
Drakz smirks, almost impressed with the challenger's resilience. You can hear him scream to Josh, "Now the real lesson begins," before laying into Josh's ribs with a punt kick. Nothing fancy about it, but still highly effective as The Architect looks to cover up. Drakz methodically picks an opening and blasts Josh with a low angle European Uppercut to the jaw as he pushes up to all fours. Josh rolls to the corner and Drakz stalks, before taking his boot and shoving it into Josh's throat! The ref admonishes Drakz, giving him a five count to release. Drakz releases at four before stepping back with his hands up.Alecia Matthews: Remember, the title doesn't change hands on a count out or disqualification. Drakz knows this and is playing very loose with the rules. Cameron Stone: It looks to me like Drakz is wanting to make a statement. Josh called him and this historic reign into question, and now he's getting punished for it! Excellent observation Cam, because no more than Josh reaching his feet in the corner, Drakz crashes into him with a massive Lariat. Josh still has a glossed over look in his eyes as he tries to fire back, but he swings at air as Drakz easily evades and sticks him with a stiff jab to the nose. Another jab lands on the orbital and Josh is about a second behind in defending, not seeing right cross before it snaps his head back and sends him stumbling into the ropes. Josh is tied up in the ropes, barely holding himself up and Drakz blisters him with straight punches while he's defenseless. The ref reminds Drakz of the five count and the champ pulls Josh out of the ropes before whipping into the ropes and flooring him with a massive Polish Hammer to the jaw!
